KYIV – As of August 12, there were 84,548 officially confirmed COVID-19 cases in Ukraine. Last week, the number of those infected set records four days in a row. Officially, the adaptive quarantine in Ukraine has been extended until August 31, however, the government does not plan to lift restrictions anytime soon.
The Cabinet of Ministers has developed a new system that classifies the country’s regions by zones – green, yellow, orange and red – based on the level of risk for coronavirus spread. Going from green to red, each zone has progressively higher quarantine restrictions.
